Hello everyone, my name is Lilja (or "Lily") and my passion in life is adventure and traveling, experiencing new things and meeting interesting people! I'm outgoing and I love a good laugh. As a person I'm honest, kind and caring, and I couldn't even hurt a fly :)

I believe following your dreams is the most important thing in life and I hope everyone could have a chance to do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people and make traveling more interesting for me and other travelers. Whenever I have a chance I happily let backpackers stay over at my place, because I know that getting to know the local people of the area can make your visit a lot more interesting, since they can show you stuff that's not in the guide books.. :)

Interests

My interests are at the moment just to go to see the World, but it's gonna take a while since it's a big place.. :)

I love painting and drawing, there's nothing better than sitting outside painting when it's nice and sunny.
I play a little guitar... :)
I love hillwalking, kayaking, swimming, ice skating....
And gardening as well!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love more or less all music, everything from classical to rock, and especially some older bands like Pink Floyd and Dire Strait! Also Mumford and Sons!

I don't watch too many movies, but I like all but horror films (I get nightmares!!), I love watching some old films too, but mainly just TV series and some popcorn... ;)

And I read lots of books whenever I've got the time :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've done was a trip to South America for 5 months, for the winter, I met some amazing people, saw amazing places.. Peru, Bolivia, Equador, Colombia, Cuba... I had the time of my life ! :)
